2013: June wrap-up

I took a week off last month, in the middle of nowhere, and surprised myself not reading 1 line, just enjoying bird songs and nature in all its beauty. Hence the poor monthly statistics:

My June total is only 4 books, with a total of only 1148 pages, that is, a pathetic 38.2 pages/day.And I listened to 1 audiobookof 15:46 hours, which gives a 30 mn/day. I have been listening to another very long audiobook, but I am not done yet!

I’m still trying to go on reading Proust, In Search of Lost Time. I am in Le côté de Guermantes; I am very far behind the weekly schedule, so not sure I will be able to cover all of Proust in 2013.

well, great titles, but few.
yes Cascade’s cover is awesome.
by the way, how do you get the animation you used for the word June? so very cool! though i assume it’s Java and I probably couldn’t use something like that in a wordpress.com blog

Wow…you are doing pretty good with your challenges. I’ve only completed 1 so far and have 2 I haven’t even started yet! I think I need to take a break from blog tours and focus on my reading challenges otherwise I’m not going to finish some of them!

We seem to have a lot of books in common! I really enjoyed Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, and when I finished reading my copy (which was my grandmother’s) I realized it was SIGNED! I had no idea! Kind of a fun coincidence. Have you ever been to Savannah?

wow, how cool! yes I have been in Savannah and loved the square plazas reminding me so much of France, my native country. and we even had a very spooky time in that famous St Boniface cemetery: there was a sudden mega thunderstorm,and it was getting very late, I was afraid we would end up trapped in the cemetery as we were so close to closing time.
